Description Sergey 2010-08-26 18:44:53 UTC

Version:           unspecified (using KDE 4.4.4) 
OS:                Linux

Hello, 

I have a lot of personal albums with some count of private photos (like ex girlfriends). Currently I store all the private photos in subfolders and it prevent me from accidental demonstration it to some not too intimate persons. But when I search for some photos with (btw, very nice and powerful) search I often show these photos in search results to friends in time when they expect something else.

It would be very nice if you can add a simple feature that will show something like "NOT SAFE FOR WORK" (have a look at the example attached) instead of image preview in albums and search results for images with some special tag or an attribute. After mouse click on the NSFW label real photo appearances. 

Please have a look at example on a web page: http://lurkmore.ru/%D0%93%D1%83%D1%80%D0%BE (don't think I like these stuff at the page, it's the only example I find for demo)

Thx a lot in advance.

Reproducible: Didn't try

Great idea! Have been thinking about something like that as well.
I guess everyone has public (landscapes, ...) and private (holidays, friends, ...) pictures. Being able to show public pictures only would make digicam ways more interesting for public presentations.

Just thinking about whether a simple flag is enough. Perhaps it is.

I would take something like that. 
I can not find anything other usefull way than having a "locked" or "hidden" tag what can be applied to photos. But should that tag be written to metadata itself or just for database? 
Then there would be the setting somewhere to "show/hide" or "lock/unlock" to switch mode when the thumbnail is hided and you can not open them to preview (they are skipped in next/last or in presentation mode). 

The file name should be hided so it can not be finded from filemanager. But tags I think could be shown.

The tag could be just so easy because then all the searches and all could be done more like "execlude this tag" until user switch the option. (And if that option would need a password.... ;) )

I'd vote for in-file metadata. Wouldn't want to do the same tagging twice on the PC and the laptop.

Sergey,

With digiKam 2.x serie, Pick and Color Labels have been implemented and can be used to flag image in your workflow...
